Title: rotate coronasun ?
Post by: timothyVL on 2015-03-06, 13:30:49

hallo,
i'm new to corona but i love it already.
at the moment i made a house and placed a coronasun for the light
the problem is i would like to rotate the sun so it shines from a different place and i cant find this parameter.

where can i find this or is this impossible ?
if this is impossible what can i do instead?

thank you for reading this and i hope someone can help me

Select the sun and find the rotation angle in their properties see image

You can also use Max's native daylight system if you are used to it:

There will be no rendering time/quality difference.

thank you i will try this.
i tried editing the rotation of the sun but then my shadow dissappeared because it just stretched out the sun -> shadow goes away over a big part
but i never used the coronasky because i always used an hdr
